Emma's stiletto seduction 01 to Pt. 09
Comments welcome.
"Emma," Said David, "I can't see you next week, I have to go on a conference with work and it's in Manchester."
"It's ok, I may choose to miss you if I feel like it."
We laughed.
"I'd much rather be staying with you actually." Said David, grinning, "These things are always the same. The same people, in the same place, doing the same things."
"Is it a 'lads night out' as it were then?" I asked.
"There is four of us going and they all talk about it, but they never do anything. They are all too old now even if they wanted to."
"Well have a good time, and don't think about me too much!" I exclaimed.
"You are never too far from my thoughts, and some of my dreams actually Em," Said David, blushing, "And I'll be back by the weekend if you want to come over."
"Ok I'll see you Saturday evening then, if you haven't all decided to go to Vegas and make a weekend out of it."

After getting the invitation from David moments ago, my heart was racing.
We had been seeing each other for a few months now and things had been going very well. Much better than I dared dream of when I first realised that I fancied the rather dull but genuinely lovely guy from the accounts department at work.
Luckily for me, I must have caught him on an off day when I had disclosed that I was Trans to him. He definitely fell hard for the girl he saw looking back at him when I first showed him the pictures of myself I had taken on my phone.
Even though we had taken many new steps together in our explorational journey, this week was going to be quite different. Instead of going on dates or having cosy evenings in, we are going on our first trip.
Unfortunately not a dirty weekend away at a seaside town, or a lovely cottage in the Cotswolds, ever the romantic, David had invited me to tag along on a work conference in Manchester.
It wasn't the ideal date, but the subterfuge that would be necessary to pull it off without his work colleagues noticing was certainly upping the excitement factor somewhat. It was going to be fun being his dirty little secret.

Thankfully I didnt have too much time to think about things, this time tomorrow I would be waiting to get a text from David who would be waiting outside for me.
I would have to plan for three days, travelling in the train to Manchester tomorrow. A day in the hotel working, and then travelling back on the train Saturday.
I knew I would have to pack lite, travelling with heavy luggage is never fun especially when you have to make your way across London. Yes, it was only three days but who knew what those three days could entail.
I would need two travelling outfits, and possibly a cocktail dress if I had a meal or drinks at the bar on Friday night.
Taking my medium sized travelling suitcase, I carefully packed my clothes and shoes ready for the trip.
"How is it possible for a make-up bag to take up one quarter of a case?" I asked myself.
I took care to cover for most eventualities, and carefully laid out my travelling outfit for tomorrow. I planned to leave work early, drive home and get a quick shower before getting changed and David arriving to take us to the station.
Even though I had dressed for David many times before now, this afternoon was going to be an exception. I was nervous again. It was exciting. It was dangerous to be doing such a daring thing.
As I fastened the clasp of a 34b black lace bra around my chest, I started to wonder what might happen, "but I should concentrate, yes, I needed to focus" I told myself.
I rolled up a pair of black tights with a heavy denier, and they glid silkily over my smooth legs. The skirt that chose was a soft black leather, styled tightly with a high waistband with a length that hung well below the knee. The fitting slightly restricted your movement, only allowing small steps to be taken.
"I wonder if he will know it's called a 'hobble skirt'?" I asked myself.
I pulled on a thin white woolen cardigan over my bra, which felt soft and warm against my skin.
A long three-quarter length black leather jacket and flat heeled knee boots would complete the travelling look.
It needed to be both warm and practical for a trip across a cold London in January and a long train journey. With no skin on show, the only sexiness would come from the material.
At exactly half past four, I received a text from David, who was outside in the car.
I picked up my patent plastic handbag from the hall and wheeled my case through the hallway of the apartments to the front door.
David was out of the car with the boot already open.
"Let me help you with that." He said, taking the handle of my case and lifting it into the car.
"Thank you." I responded, making my way to the passenger seat. "We had better get going."
It was a short drive to the station, as David found a place to park in the small long-stay section, I typed in his registration into my parking app and paid for three days/
"I never like leaving it here." He said lifting both of our cases out of the car, "The others are getting an Uber so they don't have to."
David looked around, furtively.
"It's ok you know, you don't have to walk in with me." I said, looking towards the station entrance.
He seemed embarrassed by this rather than by me.
"It's just that I don't want to complicate things at work." He said, shyly.
"You are right, I understand," I replied, "this is whats going to make this trip more fun."
"Keep your phone on at all times though," Said David with the slightest hint of care, "See you later, and take this."
He leaned over and kissed me quickly on the cheek, handing me an open return ticket to Manchester Piccadilly.
"But," I shouted to him, "You didnt have to..." As he strode off towards the bright lights.
I put on my cotton mask, and waited a few moments by the car.
I could see taxis pull up by the entrance and David greeting his two work colleagues with a shake of each hand. One of them clapped David on the back and laughed at a joke he had made. They seemed in a good mood.
I made my way through the barriers and collected my ticket. This platform at the station was quiet, the other side much busier with people alighting when returning home from London.
As our train pulled in the clock read 17:01, as it pulled to a halt I could see it's 5 carriages were empty, the start of it's new journey.
David and his party entered the first carriage, and I could see him look back down the train as I lifted my case into the last carriage. He knew I had got on safely.
I took the first seat available, which was right by the door. I placed my case on the seat next to me, but I need not have worried. Only five other people were in my carriage at the moment. As the train pulled away and left home in the distance, my heart skipped a beat and my mind wandered.
Thankfully it was an uneventful journey to Charing Cross Station. After 30 minutes an elderly guard wandered through the carriage announcing "all tickets please".
